Working within the Forensic Paradigm: Cross-discipline approaches for policy and practice de Rosemary Sheehan

Working within the Forensic Paradigm: Cross-discipline approaches for policy and practice: Routledge Frontiers of Criminal Justice

Editat de Rosemary Sheehan, James Ogloff

en Limba Engleză Hardback – 19 noi 2014

Forensic work occurs across the criminal justice sector and the legal and health professions and intersects with work in a range of areas, such as child protection, family welfare, mental health, offending, disability and addictions, family violence programmes, juvenile justice and sexual assault centres. This book offers contemporary perspectives on forensic policy and practice from the range of practitioners working with people within the forensic domain and canvasses ideas about risk and offending behaviours together with ideas about effective responses to rehabilitation and recovery.

The contributors to this proposed book are drawn from the practitioners, policy contributors, advocates and researchers in mental health, welfare, law, criminology, policing and health. Negligible attention has been paid to forensic policy and practice; this proposed book offers cross-national attention to how mental health, welfare and justice systems intersect, who they affect, and how practitioners structure effective responses for vulnerable people within the forensic domain.
A particular strength of the book is its international focus, making it relevant to academics and practitioners who work in this field around the world.

Recenzii

‘This book gives full recognition that people who offend against the law often do so because of a myriad of individual and social problems, and in careful, thoughtful and insightful fashion the authors give attention to the need for better links between mental health, welfare and criminal justice systems. The contributors question and challenge received wisdom, law, and policy in relation to people who offend, and set out a new paradigm for effective work between forensic mental health and human support services. This is an excellent, authoritative and thought-provoking collection of essays.’ - Professor Loraine Gelsthorpe, Institute of Criminology, University of Cambridge and President of the British Society of Criminology, UK
‘Practitioners, policymakers, and researchers will all find this book valuable. The editors of this text define forensic mental health matters broadly and have assembled an international, interdisciplinary team of contributors. What results is a sharing of perspectives, paradigms, and strategies that is unmatched by any other publication devoted to forensic mental health administration, policy, and practice.’ - Randy K. Otto, Associate Professor, Departments of Mental Health Law and Policy, Psychology, and Criminology, University of South Florida, USA
